Advice
About our bath re-enamelling in Westmarsh
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can normally put it right, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths alike.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Westmarsh, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Westmarsh questions
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Westmarsh?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your CT3 postcode.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
